I tried RC1 in a friend’s computer and then installed it in mine as well. IT seems to be working well. I didn’t find any bugs annoying me. I have been waiting for RC2 for quite a while now. I am happy to find a download link here. Thank you! 420 singles

Comment on Foswiki 1.1.4 heads-up on manual changes to .txt files by @csirac2

Hi William, http://trin.org.au is using the experimental (see http://wiki.trin.org.au/System/MongoDBPlugin ) already. This relies on trunk-only features, though, so won't work on Foswiki 1.1. We are running with over 200,000 topics and SEARCHes in webs of over 60,000 topics are quite snappy. I think the largest web to demonstrate is a SEARCH-powered jqgrid of 25,000 topics at http://wiki.trin.org.au/Lauries/ – keep in mind that filtering uses regex-searching, which is much, much slower than boolean type searchers.

There are plans to freeze trunk soon so we can concentrate on releasing the work in trunk properly, http://foswiki.org/Blog/Release_1_1_5_planned__Br…

Thanks for the update. works great on my system.

I saw an old post referring to the idea of creating a database for foswiki – one which would retain the simplicity of text files while utilising indexing capabilities. Is this idea progressing?

If you want to simply use the .txt date as a base for the .txt,v, you can use the -r option of touch, if your system supports it. So for a single files, that is:

touch -r $file ${file},v where $file is the path to YourTopic.txt

To do all at once, easiest is to use perl:

perl -MFile::Find=find -wle'find(sub{/^(.*.txt),vz/&&-f&&system("echo touch -f $1 $_")},@ARGV)' /path/to/foswiki/data

Once we have a newsletter (or any communication), we should ask Perl Weekly if they would like to feature it (http://perlweekly.com). Over 2000 subscribers.

Comment on Foswiki is getting SQL RDBMS support by @csirac2

@csirac2 — Sat, 04 Jun 2011 12:44:20 +0000

Yes, an SQL implementation would enable efficient implementation of the "time travel" feature, but there is no complete specification for how this would work. http://foswiki.org/Development/AddWikiSnapshots has some talk about this, and http://foswiki.org/Development/LoadDifferentTopic… has some more nitty gritty detail about adding web-topic-version tuples as first-class address syntax to be supported throughout the wiki. Ideas and comments are very welcome

For what it's worth, MongoDBPlugin is storing every version of every topic (but not yet queryable via the QuerySearch versions query syntax yet)
